Music Video of the Day: The Avalanches; “Frontier Psychiatrist”

The Avalanches are an Australian group who utilized hundreds of samples, all of which they got approved by their owners, to make their 2001 album “Since I Left You.” Since the release of that album, they have been working diligently on the follow-up, and are now in the process of clearing samples, according to their MySpace page. This video from album standout “Frontier Psychiatrist” shows the sheer expanse of the samples used in the song, along with some pretty outlandish and absurd imagery. It’s a hard video to top, and is a testament to the group’s sheer genius.
